Yeah, Wells is about four steps past his prime--let another club pay for his services... I don't think Hendry is that stupid... tb "E. George Mucher III"...
Any of you can take a pessmist view of the upcoming '06 season, heck history is on your side. But why then be a fan unless you like suicide watches. That said...
I hope you're right Frank, but I don't think Murton is going to hit 25 homers in his first full season. Key phrase with Murton, "limited ML time". Go back and...
Maybe we aren't stuck with Walker, but he is a Dusty favorite. I just wrote another guy that I've got no problem with Hairston taking over at the two-sack. And...
Jim, who would you rather have? Personally, I think Walker. He had a bum knee last year, and perhaps he was nursing it; being careful not to hurt it worse...

Likewise, I think Hairston was not healthy either. I think the Cubs are right to concentrate on defense and if that's the case, and you still want some...

I have some openings for fantasy baseball at yahoo!!!! Contact me privately for the league ID# and password. Steve ... Brings words and photos together...
Right now, Jim, I'd settle for Don Rickles if I knew he could do the job! I can't wait for Spring Training. It will be VERY interesting indeed. Jim Hekel...
I think we all can agree that as long as the Cubs are getting solid defense and fair production out of second base, it doesn't matter who's there... I just...
But I would still trade that for Hairston getting the majority of the starts- and having more solid defense. We NEED to be defensively sound, because we are...
Here is my take: Computer analysis has it right now that the Cubs should win 87 games and be in the race for the WC. We know that the roster is going to change...
I agree on a bit of what you say. The biggest thing I have a problem with is bringing Wells in here. I think the negative impact he could have would really be...
GEO: The problem is real MLB rosters are not fan-friendly fantasy rosters. Teams don't trade away players who don't have baggage. Furthermore there are few...
Who ever said anything about fan friendly fantasy rosters? What I am talking about is the fact that we picked up 2 guys NOTED for being hardworking guys: ...
So you think that Matt Murton is going to hit .340, which would be the highest by a REAL rookie (not Ichiro) since Willie McCovey in 1959? Please. The numbers...
Great post George: You and Robert make some good points, however I am a little gun shy still about trading young pitchers: ala Jon Garland and Dontrelle...
Just for everyone's knowledge: MLB does not consider Murton a rookie anymore...so if he did hit .340, he would do it as a 2nd year guy...who knows with him...
Yeah- but at the time Dontrelle was not going to get a shot any time soon. And we did get Clement in return, although we did not resign him, and he did a...
I really like the thought of adding Mench, but I believe that the Sox just signed or are about to sign Alex Gonzales of the Marlins. Wells would be OK, but he...
He isn't a rookie by MLB standards, but he's had what--50 games? This will be his first full season, so I can't see him hitting .340. Not even Pujols hit...

As for Murton I think he is the real deal, more so from what I was told from some close to the clubhouse who know of his approach. As for my optimism...I don't...
